About Strikingly

Hosted website builders split the web into sites you can take apart and sites you can only observe from the outside, and Strikingly sits firmly on the second side of that line. The product from Strikingly Inc. was built for people who wanted a presence online before they wanted a website, and the platform is Proprietary and fully hosted, so every moving part stays on infrastructure the customer never logs into.

Scale here is modest and geographically lopsided. As of September 2026 we detect Strikingly on 33,059 sites, and United States accounts for 31,236 of them. Concentration that heavy is normal for a consumer-grade CMS: the marketing, the templates and the payment flows are aimed at one market, referral does the rest, and a subscription started years ago renews quietly long after the business behind it has changed shape. Domains cluster under .com, consistent with an audience registering a name for a personal or product brand rather than for a national market.

For a researcher, the useful reading of the builder on a domain is negative as much as positive. There is no server to sell into, no plugin ecosystem, no database, no admin panel to integrate with, and no version to track, because the vendor upgrades every customer at once whether they noticed or not. What remains is a small business or an individual with an active web presence, a low technical ceiling, and a monthly bill already going to a software vendor. Agencies pitching redesigns, commerce platforms hunting merchants who have outgrown a hosted builder, and rival builders all want that population isolated, and they want it as a set rather than as a series of lookups.

Detection is inferential and worth stating plainly. We identify the platform from the markup and asset fingerprints it leaves on the pages it serves, which means the count covers sites reachable on their own domain and misses everything that was never moved off the vendor's own subdomain. Sites behind an aggressive proxy or heavily customised can also fall out. The figure should be read as a floor for custom-domain usage rather than as a subscriber count, and no external scan can produce the latter.

A per-domain lookup answers whether one company uses the builder, which is a support question. The downloadable list answers the questions that only exist in aggregate: how much of a national small business market runs its entire web presence on hosted builder software, which sectors settled there, how the population overlaps with payment tools and analytics, and which of those owners hold a domain worth keeping when they eventually move. Because the sites are structurally alike, the export is unusually uniform as a prospect set, and that uniformity is exactly what makes it worth downloading rather than querying one domain at a time.
